Sole proprietors and others who are self-employed can have an HSA, and are, in fact, often ideal candidates for an HSA. In such situations, the business owner is both employer and employee. HSAs are often advantageous for the self–employed because:

• high–deductible health insurance plans generally have modest premium costs, and may be an effective cost–containment mechanism
• the self–employed individual is protected against potentially catastrophic healthcare expenses, and
• the HSA may serve the dual purpose of providing for both medical and retirement expenses

You can, but you’ll need to pay a 20 percent tax penalty for the total amount you withdraw.

• Contributions are deductible from federal taxes up to the maximum allowable amount. Please consult your tax advisor for details.
